L-BAL013 0.5 mm Dia. TAFD45 Ball Lenses Uncoated

The L-BAL013 is a 0.5 mm diameter Ball Lens, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Ross Optical. This particular lens is made from TAFD45 material, a type of glass developed by Hoya, which is known for its excellent optical properties.

The lens is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance or alter its optical characteristics. This can be beneficial in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired. However, it's important to note that uncoated lenses may be more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust, dirt, and moisture, which can affect their performance.

The L-BAL013 is a circular lens, with a base shape that is ideal for a wide range of optical applications. The geometry of the lens is defined by its diameter, which is 0.5 mm, and its inner and outer radii, which are both 0. This indicates that the lens has a uniform curvature throughout.

The lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6 nm, which is a common wavelength used in various optical systems. This makes the L-BAL013 a versatile choice for many applications.
